The largest (up to 2 tons) and a globally distributed teleost--the ocean sunfish Mola mola--is commonly regarded as a planktonic fish because of its unusual shape including absence of caudal fin. This common view was recently questioned because the horizontal movements of the ocean sunfish tracked by acoustic telemetry were independent of ocean currents. However, direct information regarding th...

Protein structure analysis from DNA sequences is an important and fast growing area in both computer science and biochemistry. Although interesting approaches have been studied, it is very difficult to capture the characteristics of protein, since even a simple protein are made of more than 100 amino acids, which makes biochemical experiments very difficult to detect functional components. For ...

Basking at the sea surface is a well known, but peculiar behavior of ocean sunfish (Mola mola). One of hypotheses for this behavior is parasite elimination. However, in oceanic regions, very little direct evidence exists for this form of interspecific communication. In pelagic waters of the North Pacific Ocean, we observed a school of 57 ocean sunfish, that were heavily infested around the base...

The shape design of the Tubular Linear Synchronous Motor (TLSM) is a critical engineeri ng optimization problem which was handled as single- and multi-objective frameworks. However, different practical constraints for TLSM must be efficiently guaranteed. This paper proposes developed to maximize operating force minimize flux saturation. In this regard, Multi-objective Grey Wolf Optimizer (MGWO)...
